Chelsea - Salvation Army

(Capt. W. Hodgson).- The experience of a flourishing builder & foreman on Sunday evening was, "I am glad I came here," and his prayer, "I thank you, Jesus, for saving me" and nine others who felt just like him knelt with him all in a row, and such simplicity and faith as these ten manifested brings Heaven down to earth, makes angels rejoice and maddens devils, and sends ail true Salvation Soldiers on tip-toe for glory, So there was really no wonder that these Soldiers had a "Hailelujah Wind-up." Nearly 100 testimonies and quite a running fire was kept up till very late. The Soldiers plunging deeper, rising higher, and joyfully marching along, singing, "We shall conquer all," They have discovered that ripe fruit is found on the top of the fruit trees, so they are climbing up the tree of Life, scaling Pisgahs Mount and having a good view of the Promised Land. We will go up and possess it, for we are well abie.

From, "The War Cry," page 3, 12th January 1882.

I do not know where the meetings were held.
